Nings do contain ads…free sometimes gives you ads…email NING and ads can be taken off if you are an educator

Teachers can customize their NING and students get their own profile page that they can customize
Closely related to facebook set up

NING in School
Personalized
One stop shopping
Comment on photos, blogging, videos, groups for projects
Even if it is a public NING the groups can be private
Synchronous and asynchronous: there is a chat room. Everyone gets a voice
Global collaboration: schools could invite people from around the world to participate
Differentiation piece: projects can all be loaded

Check out Presi for presentations…cool effects and set ups

In NING you can lock out pages…

box.net to hold files that you want to share with others

discussion forums/ comment walls/ blogging/

Discussions are more robust in NING than in Wiki

Upload a movie, review it, and directly below it you can peer edit and comment directly on it

Great way to practice for the real world…you can take things off


NO TALKING BY ANDREW CLEMENTS

Lots of space in NING…videos, photos, uploads…
